By Rosalind Russell – Public Health Sudbury & Districts is reminding all parents and guardians to check, vaccinate, and update their child’s immunization record to ensure they meet Ontario’s school vaccination requirements.
Sara Noble, a manager with the Vaccine Preventable Disease Team says over 6,200 students in schools across their service area currently have overdue vaccines according to the provincial immunization database.
She says their parents will soon receive a letter urging families to act by checking immunization records, vaccinating if necessary, and updating their information with the agency.
Noble adds students who are not up to date with their vaccinations are strongly encouraged to receive the required immunizations promptly.
